[Zmagnette] Ebay stuff

[JOHN SCHOLZ]

restoring a grille is expensive..
 
I have $800 after all the pieces were re-chromed.. I have $4000 plus in re-chroming all the exterior pieces ....
 
Does anybody have any perfect ZBV Drip rail or gutter trim?

omg, I'm not sure how to react to this!  Maybe he tried to sell the 
car, and someone told him the parts were worth more separately than the car was, 
in one piece?  The steering wheel medallion is insane . .  $69 for 
that?  Realistically, it probably does cost 1200 to have a grille repaired 
and plated, but it is shocking to see that price.  And, I think of Dee 
Johnson buying an NOS one, in the BMC wrapping paper for $35.!!!  I'm still 
mad at her for that.  I first offered her a quick $15.00 profit, and she 
wouldn't take it . . . geeesh.  Then, I offered to DOUBLE her money , and 
still, she wouldn't budge.  Know what they did with it?  Put it on 
their car . . . . wowsa.   

Maybe if this guy achieves anywhere near these prices, our parts cars are 
worth a lot more, eh?
